Peer-to-Peer Stata and Econometrics Help

Are you taking an upper-level elective that has you doing problem sets or projects that involve Stata programming or econometric modeling? Or are you in the Econometrics or Statistics labs? Are you writing a thesis?

The Econ Help Desk is a talented, experienced team of undergrads ready to help their peers with problem sets, assignments, and research projects involving Stata programming and/or econometric analysis. Each Help Desk team member will be available twice a week for in-person or Zoom live help. They can also answer questions asynchronously through posts on Ed Discussion. For more information on each team member's specific hours and how to access the help, please see the Econ Help Desk site. 

The Econ Help Desk will start on Tuesday, January 20, and run through the beginning of study days at the end of the semester. No appointment is necessary, but please do plan ahead (especially for end-of-semester assignments).
